Example sentences for: cutpoint

How can you use “cutpoint” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The 4 ng/ml cutpoint was associated with a likelihood ratio for a positive test of 1.28 and 0.42 for a negative test, representing only moderate probability revisions [ 18 ] . PSA values < 2 ng/ml or greater than 20 ng/ml were associated with large probability revisions.

  • The first and only variable and cut-point isolated by the ROC analysis was performance on the MMSE (chi-square= 4.37, p < .05, cutpoint = 27).

  • Estimates for sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values for different PSA cutpoints, stratified by age range, are reported in Tables 1and 2. Data are presented for men in their 50s and 60s in Table 1, and for men in their 70s and all age groups combined (including men in their 40s and men 80 years and older) in Table 2. For the standard PSA cutpoint of 4 ng/ml, test sensitivity was 86% and specificity was 33%.

  • [ 22 23 ] However, this categorization reduces the power to detect small associations between fetal exposures and birth weight, unless there is a change in the relationship exactly at the arbitrary cutpoint.

  • The PSA cutpoint of 4 ng/ml was sensitive but relatively non-specific and likelihood ratios for this cutpoint demonstrated only moderate probability revisions.
